Description
Iodosorb Ointment 4 x 10g is a topical preparation that contains iodine in the form of cadexomer iodine. It's a sterile, cadexomer technology-based ointment containing 0.9% w/w iodine that aids in wound healing.
It is used to treat a wide range of wounds, including ulcers, surgical wounds, burns, and chronic wounds, and is helpful for various skin conditions.
How does Iodosorb Ointment work?
Cadexomer iodine is an activated, absorbent gel, in which the iodine is bound to a starch polymer. This unique mechanism of action ensures controlled, sustained release of iodine into the wound site, whilst interacting with wound fluid to clean the wound.
The cadexomer gel in Iodosorb Ointment absorbs cellular debris, bacteria, and endotoxins, thereby reducing wound infection and promoting healing. It accomplishes lymph filtration, wound debridement, and endotoxin removal.
Benefits:
- It will not cause the formation of resistant microbial strains since it is capable of killing resistant microbes.
- Highly effective and efficient in treating chronic wounds.
- It eliminates odor, reduces inflammation, and enhances healing of wounds.
- It's easy to apply and doesn't adhere to the dressing.
- It is painless, biodegradable, and free of toxicity and resistance.
How to use:
The wound should be cleaned and dried thoroughly before applying Iodosorb Ointment. This product is meant to be applied directly to the wound bed at a thickness of about 3–5mm and covered with a sterile or non-sterile secondary dressing.
The frequency of dressing change depends on the amount of exudate from the wound, but it can generally be changed every 2-3 days.
Precautions:
- It is not recommend to be used in patients with hypersensitivity to iodine or those with thyroid dysfunction.
- Iodosorb ointment should be used with caution in pregnant or nursing women and in children.
